Expression of cholesterol synthesis and uptake related genes in isolated islets from aP2-CETPTg mice. Relative mRNA levels of HMGCS, Srebp2 and Ldlr in isolated islets. n = 5 per group. Values are expressed as mean ± SD. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01, compared with control group. HMGCS 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase, Srebp2 sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2, Ldlr LDL receptor
